Abstract
The Study Group was asked to review the available literature and information, especially that developed since 2000, that would allow them to assess any changes and improvements in the understanding of nutrient sources and flux estimates within the Mississippi and Atchafalaya River basins (MARB) (see Fig. Fig 1.2) and the current ability to use watershed models to route and predict nutrient delivery to the Gulf of Mexico. The following sections discuss the current levels of understanding and provide brief summaries of the Study Group’s key findings and recommendations.
